Miturgidae
Miturgidae, also known as the ghost spiders, are a family of arachnids belonging to the order Amblypygi. These nocturnal animals are characterized by their elongated bodies and slender legs, resembling those of harvestmen. However, unlike harvestmen, ghost spiders have two main body segments and lack the fan-like pedipalps. They are found in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide, inhabiting various habitats such as forests, caves, and leaf litter. Miturgidae species are known for their unique hunting behavior, where they use their long legs to detect vibrations of potential prey. Their diet mainly consists of insects and other small arthropods. Despite their somewhat intimidating appearance, ghost spiders are harmless to humans and play an essential role in controlling pest populations in their ecosystems.
